Day 24

Victoria’s POV

“How’d you sleep?” John asked coming into the kitchen where I sat alone.

“Good thank you” That was a lie.

I didn’t sleep at all, I was awake every damn second thinking about Sebastian.  He roamed my thoughts, keeping unfocused of my surroundings and taking insomnia to a whole different meaning. I’m not going to lie, I cried my eyes out.

Dominic forced me to sleep in John’s guest room, which made Dominic move to the couch.

“Where are your parents?” I ask him.

“They’re in Hawaii for their anniversary” He says smiling.

“That’s cute”

“Yeah haha. It’s awesome for me, I’ve got the house to myself for a week” He says happily as he goes for a bowl of cereal. “Ah, I don’t know what you want for breakfast, I usually eat cereal or something”

“Oh, I’ll have some later”

“Alright” He says, his dark hair bounces as he heads off to the living room.

I feel awkward staying here, like I don’t belong. It felt homey at Sebastian’s place, but here I feel like I’m just another guest. I feel so fatigue, I obviously have had a good rest in such a long time. The pressure on my shoulders and the constant restless nights remind me just how tense my life is right now. I feel as if the whole world wants me to save them but there isn’t enough time in the world to do so. Everything is just coming down on me and I don’t know how to respond.

Sebastian’s face keeps entering my thoughts, his broken expression from last night terrorizes me every time I close my eyes. I can’t help but recreate the events from last night, the replay over and over again in my mind. After I arrived here last night, Sebastian texted me.
